几句关于程序设计的言语

今日在阅读GATE5的User Guide时看到了几句有趣的话,记录在此。

  • Software documentation is like sex: when it is good, it is very, very good; and when it is bad, it is better than nothing. (Anonymous.)
  • There are two ways of constructing a software design: one way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no defciencies; the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious defciencies. (C.A.R. Hoare)
  • A computer language is not just a way of getting a computer to perform operations but rather that it is a novel formal medium for expressing ideas about methodology. Thus, programs must be written for people to read, and only incidentallyfor machines to execute. (The Structure and Interpretation of ComputerPrograms, H. Abelson, G. Sussman and J. Sussman, 1985.)
  • If you try to make something beautiful, it is often ugly. If you try to make something useful, it is often beautiful. (Oscar Wilde)
